Does your face look youthful, but your neck tells a different story? The neck is often the “forgotten” area of anti-aging. Loose, crepey skin, vertical muscle bands, or a stubborn double chin can make you look older and heavier than you actually are.
If you find yourself constantly wearing scarves, turtlenecks, or editing your photos to hide your jawline, a Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty) in Turkey is the solution.
Dr. Rehber Marşil, operating in Antalya, approaches the neck as the pedestal of the face. His goal is to restore a sharp, 90-degree angle between the chin and the neck, giving you a slender, elegant profile.
What is a Neck Lift? (Platysmaplasty)
A Neck Lift is a surgical procedure to improve the appearance of the neck and jawline. It targets three specific problems:
Loose Skin: The “Turkey Wattle” hanging under the chin.
Excess Fat: Double chin that resists diet.
Muscle Bands: The vertical cords (Platysma bands) that stick out when you talk.
Dr. Marşil doesn’t just pull the skin. He performs a Platysmaplasty, which involves tightening the underlying neck muscles (Platysma) in the center, stitching them together like a corset. This creates a firm, lasting foundation for the skin.
Which Technique is Right for You?
Not every patient needs a full surgical lift.
1. Neck Liposuction Only
Best For: Younger patients (20s-30s) with good skin elasticity who only have a “double chin” (fat).
Technique: Vaser Liposuction through tiny punctures.
Result: The skin retracts on its own, revealing the jawline.
2. Neck Lift (Skin Only)
Best For: Patients with loose, crepey skin but good muscle tone.
Technique: Excess skin is trimmed, and the remaining skin is draped smoothly.
3. Full Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty)
Best For: Patients with “Turkey Neck” (hanging skin + muscle bands).
Technique: Combining muscle tightening (the corset) with skin removal and liposuction. This provides the most dramatic and long-lasting “snatched” jawline.
The Incision: The Art of Hiding Scars
Dr. Marşil is meticulous about scar placement so you can wear your hair up with confidence.
The Path: The incision traces the natural curves inside the ear (tragus) and hides behind the ear in the hairline.
The Healing: Because there is no tension on the skin (thanks to the Deep Plane technique), the scars heal as faint, invisible lines.
Whether it’s excess fat or loose skin, we have the solution. Combine Neck Lipo with a Lift for a snatched, contoured look.
Why Choose Antalya for Your Neck Lift?
Privacy: Recover in a comfortable hotel in Antalya. The bandages are easy to hide with a light scarf or high collar, so you can enjoy your holiday discreetly.
Expertise: Dr. Marşil is an expert in deep neck anatomy, ensuring safety and natural results (no “pulled” look).
Value: A Neck Lift in the UK/USA can cost £8,000+. In Turkey, you receive expert surgical care for 50-60% less.
Recovery Timeline
What to Expect
Bandages: You will wear a compression chin strap (head wrap) for the first few days to reduce swelling and support the new neck contour.
Tightness: Your neck will feel very tight, as if someone is holding it. This is normal and means the muscles are tightened correctly.
Bruising: Mild bruising on the neck is common and usually moves down to the chest before fading in 10–14 days.
Return to Work: Desk jobs in 7–10 days.
Scars: Incisions are hidden behind the ears and a tiny one under the chin. They fade to near-invisibility over 6–12 months.
Safety & Honest Facts
Numbness: It is very common for the skin under the chin and around the ears to feel numb or “wooden” for several weeks. Sensation gradually returns.
The “Choking” Feeling: Because the muscles are tightened, some patients report a sensation of wearing a tight necklace. This is not dangerous and resolves as tissues relax.
Seroma: Fluid buildup is a risk, which is why drains (small tubes) are often used for 1 day.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
01How much is a Neck Lift in Turkey?
Prices vary depending on whether it’s a simple Lipo or a full Platysmaplasty. However, Neck Lift in Turkey is highly cost-effective. Our packages include surgery, hotel accommodation, and VIP transfers. Contact us for a quote.
02Can I combine it with a Facelift?
Yes. This is the most common combination. A Facelift treats the cheeks and jowls, while a Neck Lift treats the area below the jawline. Doing them together ensures a seamless, uniform rejuvenation.
03Do I need a Chin Implant?
Often, yes. A weak chin can make the neck look less defined. Adding a small chin implant while doing the neck lift creates a powerful, balanced profile and extends the jawline.
04Is the scar visible?
Dr. Marşil places the incisions strategically: behind the ears (hidden by hair) and in the natural crease under the chin. Unless someone looks closely from below, they are very hard to see.
05How long does it last?
A surgical Neck Lift provides long-lasting results, typically 10–15 years. While aging continues, your neck will always look better than if you hadn’t had the surgery
06Is it painful?
Most patients report discomfort and tightness rather than sharp pain. It is generally less painful than a tummy tuck or body surgery.
